- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Your questions about wood floor repair in South Hetton
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.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in South Hetton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to South Hetton. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DH6 postcode.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
