How we price wood floor repair

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Questions from Roborough

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
