Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Galton Village

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Our hiring checklist

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Galton Village. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Galton Village. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

Most customers in Galton Village get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
