What else we do in Cox Green
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cox Green as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bolton and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
