How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Garston. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 typically the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Liverpool and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Garston

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Garston included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Repair or replace in Garston?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
