Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Advice

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Denton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What we are called out for in Denton

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

Landlord and trade work in Denton

If you manage property in Denton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
