Your questions about wood floor repair in Dafen

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Dafen is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Are there extra charges for Dafen?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How we handle wood floor repair in Dafen

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why Dafen customers choose us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Take a look at our full price list.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Dafen. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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 generally cheaper.
