Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Wood floor repair in Ford, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We’re frequently asked to fix dents from dropped items and burns, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ford and across Plymouth. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Ford: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Common problems we fix in Ford
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Who will actually do the work
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
