What else we do in Eccleston
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Eccleston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eccleston
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Eccleston as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can price the job.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Common problems we fix in Eccleston
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Burns
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
Before you book anyone

- Whether they match the colour on site
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
