Replacing a 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. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Ufford
Do you work in Ufford?
We do. Technicians travel to Ufford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
