Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coxbench use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Coxbench. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, pictures 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.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
