Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

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

Getting ready for the visit

How to compare quotes

Thorington Street: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you work in Thorington Street?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Thorington Street. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
