What affects the price in Washwood Heath
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole floor
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Washwood Heath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Washwood Heath. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
