How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Great Gaddesden. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring all our kit in the van, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work. For a rural address like Great Gaddesden, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the wood floor repair comes with us in one trip.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Great Gaddesden

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Gaddesden

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. For a rural home like those around Great Gaddesden, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while wood floor repair is one trip.

Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Great Gaddesden. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
