DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t 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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fingringhoe
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
If you manage property in Fingringhoe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Advice
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Fingringhoe
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
