Next we fill the dents and chips.
We sand the repair flush with the board.
We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Advice

New-build snagging: repairing chips and scratches

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

The type of damage
Access to the area
Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

A wider photo showing the entire floor
Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
What it’s made of, if you know
One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in West Howe

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Questions from West Howe

Do you cover West Howe?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to West Howe. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
