Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a 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. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Just around the damaged area.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
