What else we do in Ford's Green
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring

Ford's Green questions
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we are working on.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.

- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Ford's Green
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
