Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Upwey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
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 usually cheaper.
