The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Honor Oak. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

There’s 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 reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Honor Oak questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do you come to Honor Oak?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Honor Oak from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
