Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Little Hungerford
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Older homes around Little Hungerford may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. Repairing avoids those problems.
Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
