Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire floor
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your WD3 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Chorleywood West: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Chorleywood West?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What areas do you cover?
All of Hertfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Chorleywood West
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
