Wood Floor Repair for Dorley's Corner homes
Wood floor repair across Dorley's Corner and nearby, generally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Dorley's Corner, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dorley's Corner
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
