Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Do you need wood floor repair in Chesterton?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

  • Gouges from moving appliances

Before booking anyone

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site

Common questions in Chesterton

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Chesterton?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Chesterton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
