Wood floor repair near Mott's Mill

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Mott's Mill. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: 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. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
