We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What happens if you find more damage?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
