What affects the price in Upgate Street

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NR16 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Upgate Street

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

FAQs for Upgate Street

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

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.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our full price list.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
