Repair or replace in Elsworth?

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Elsworth. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elsworth use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
