What wood floor repair costs

- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Lower Vagg, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

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. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
