Landlord and trade work in Norwich
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
About our wood floor repair in Norwich
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most customers in Norwich get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
