Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What else we do in Rivenhall
Repairing versus replacing in Rivenhall
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
FAQs for Rivenhall
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
