Repairing versus replacing in Hales
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Wood floor repair at your home in Hales
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Common questions in Hales
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover the entire of Shropshire?
All of Shropshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Hales?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Hales. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One picture of the entire floor
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
