What affects the price in Holmbush
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Holmbush: your questions answered
How much does wood floor repair cost in Holmbush?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When to call us in Holmbush
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What else we do in Holmbush
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
