How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Repairing versus replacing in Clift
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Clift
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Clift?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common problems we fix in Clift
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Gouges from moving appliances
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- What prep work is covered
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Aftercare advice
