What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Frankby

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Frankby as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Frankby

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Wirral, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are 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.
