How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us

Advice
FAQs for Herrington
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Herrington?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
