Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

FAQs for Kirksanton
Do you work in Kirksanton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kirksanton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
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.
How much does wood floor repair cost in Kirksanton?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you’re in Kirksanton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When a repair isn’t the answer

- Boards that have lifted or warped
