Advice
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Scorriton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

FAQs for Scorriton
How much does wood floor repair cost in Scorriton?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TQ11 postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Scorriton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

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, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
