Repair or replace in Cat's Common?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole floor
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cat's Common
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
