Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Thorpe Acre
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What areas do you cover?
All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you come to Thorpe Acre?
We do. Technicians travel to Thorpe Acre from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What affects the price in Thorpe Acre
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repair or replace in Thorpe Acre?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs
