When to call us in Hickling Pastures
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
- When it can be used again
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. 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.

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Questions from Hickling Pastures
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Hickling Pastures?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hickling Pastures
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice
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 usually the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
