How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Shildon. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Questions from Shildon
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
