Common questions in Philadelphia
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you come to Philadelphia?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Philadelphia for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Philadelphia?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your DH4 postcode.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price

Repairing versus replacing in Philadelphia
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Philadelphia. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
