Wood floor repair in Drayford without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can generally put it right.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Drayford clients choose us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Drayford: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
