Common questions in Lockton
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How much does wood floor repair cost in Lockton?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Get a quote
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lockton
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lockton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What affects the price in Lockton
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
