How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most clients in Drimpton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

FAQs for Drimpton

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, 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.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have 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 let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Repair or replace in Drimpton?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
