Book wood floor repair in Croydon

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire floor
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Wood floor repair at your home in Croydon

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

FAQs for Croydon

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Do you work in Croydon?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Croydon. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add 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.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
