What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you’re in Leafield and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How we handle wood floor repair in Leafield
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are burns and chipped board edges.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Common problems we fix in Leafield
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chipped board edges
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
What your quote should include

For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Leafield as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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.

Leafield questions
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
