What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. 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 you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Carlton
