How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

FAQs for Affetside

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Affetside?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Affetside as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What we are called out for in Affetside

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Get a quote

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BL8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
