How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job.

Wood floor repair in Belhaven, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people contact us are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

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

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

FAQs for Belhaven

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Belhaven

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
