What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Wood floor repair at your home in Leckwith
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

FAQs for Leckwith
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Repair or replace in Leckwith?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
About our accreditations · Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.
