Repair or replace in Ludlow?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What else we do in Ludlow
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What affects the price in Ludlow
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
FAQs for Ludlow
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Ludlow and the rest of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Ludlow?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
