What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire floor
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Dobcross: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Do you need wood floor repair in Dobcross?
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
