How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cowley. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
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
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace in Cowley?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cowley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 normally cheaper.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What a repair can’t fix
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
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
