Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your B42 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Hamstead
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should you replace it?
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. 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 will get a fixed figure.

Common questions in Hamstead
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you cover the whole of Birmingham?
All of Birmingham, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
