DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Little Chesterford
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Little Chesterford questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
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.
Do you cover the entire of Essex?
The whole UK, including all of Essex. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
The process
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
