What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most clients in North End get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

For a price in North End, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Honest limits
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
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Questions from North End
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Landlords, agents and businesses in North End
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
