Advice
Northiam questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover the whole of East Sussex?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Northiam. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Northiam. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Northiam. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

When we would advise against a repair

- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

When to call us in Northiam
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Burns
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Dents from dropped items
- Chipped board edges

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
