What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For a price in Westward Ho!, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Common problems we fix in Westward Ho!

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances

What to look for in a quote

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How your room will be protected
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
