How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Great Yeldham. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Wood floor repair in Great Yeldham, done in place
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and people most frequently call us about chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Great Yeldham: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
