Knowl Wall questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Stoke-on-Trent.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you need wood floor repair in Knowl Wall?
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
Before you book anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What aftercare is recommended
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Knowl Wall. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole floor
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
