Choosing a repair company

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Wigston Fields and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wigston Fields

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leicester and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Questions from Wigston Fields

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Wigston Fields?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you cover Wigston Fields?

We do. Technicians travel to Wigston Fields from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. 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.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Wigston Fields

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
