How we handle wood floor repair in Ford
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
