What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- 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
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Itchen, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How we handle wood floor repair in Itchen
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood, and people most frequently call us about dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Questions from Itchen
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Southampton, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlord and trade work in Itchen
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Southampton and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
