DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Advice
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace in Minterne Magna?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
