Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Gainsborough. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- 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.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire floor
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What else we do in Gainsborough
Repairing versus replacing in Gainsborough
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
