Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Charnock Richard
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different 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.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Charnock Richard get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When to call us in Charnock Richard
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Burns
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
