Should you replace it?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Moreton
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Other services in Moreton
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures 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.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Do you need wood floor repair in Moreton?
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
What to look for in a quote
- How changes to the job are handled
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
