How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Wood floor repair in Helmington Row without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and burns, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairing versus replacing in Helmington Row
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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?

- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Helmington Row
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Are there extra charges for Helmington Row?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
