DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
