DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Redbridge. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Redbridge: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
