Repairing versus replacing in Nettlestead
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.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Nettlestead
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Nettlestead. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
