Advice
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
