Repairing versus replacing in Foston
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Wood floor repair in Foston without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Advice
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Foston questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Derbyshire.
