How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common questions in Sandfields West

Do you come to Sandfields West?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Sandfields West. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage
