What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Ashwell. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Ashwell questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you come to Ashwell?

We do. Technicians travel to Ashwell from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I fix it myself?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
