Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Aberfan. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our pricing.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood
