- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
How we price wood floor repair

- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from photos

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
