DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Melkinthorpe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole floor
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Melkinthorpe, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
