Should you replace it?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What affects the price in Primrose
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
