What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Just around the damaged area.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
