FAQs for Lee
How much does wood floor repair cost in Lee?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Wood floor repair in Lee without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
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.

What else we do in Lee
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lee. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
