How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Rusthall, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Common questions in Rusthall

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Rusthall and the rest of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
