Questions from Saltmarsh
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Saltmarsh?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Repairing versus replacing in Saltmarsh
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Saltmarsh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Saltmarsh
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Saltmarsh. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Related advice
Do you need wood floor repair in Saltmarsh?
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Look out for these signs:
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
Comparing quotes
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
