Your questions about wood floor repair in Ferryhill
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your AB11 postcode.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
About our wood floor repair in Ferryhill
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Related advice
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ferryhill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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.
