Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not 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, then guarantee it for a year.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Ringstead
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.

What else we do in Ringstead
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you’re in Ringstead and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northamptonshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
