DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Folksworth

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Folksworth use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often 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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Folksworth. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

FAQs for Folksworth

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Folksworth?

Are there extra charges for Folksworth?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
