How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Milford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Wood floor repair in Milford, done in place
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. If you’re dealing with gouges from moving appliances and burns, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What else we do in Milford
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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.
Materials we work on in Milford
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
Repairing versus replacing in Milford
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Milford
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One visit for most repairs
