Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not 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 before you book.

Surfaces we repair

Solid wood
Engineered wood
Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
Laminate flooring

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Advice

New-build snagging: repairing chips and scratches

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

What the surface is made of
How easy the damage is to reach
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

Any details about the material
Any earlier repairs or coatings
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Riding of Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

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.
