Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Filby, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Filby use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairing versus replacing in Filby
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Filby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Filby
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you work in Filby?
We do. We send a technician to Filby for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
