What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Maidencombe questions

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you cover Maidencombe?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Maidencombe for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Maidencombe?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your TQ1 postcode.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing 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
