How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire floor
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Wood floor repair in Canisbay, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We are frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, in engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

FAQs for Canisbay
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Landlord and trade work in Canisbay
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
