The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Hodnet, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hodnet

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 work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Hodnet

Do you work in Hodnet?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hodnet for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
