What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Wood floor repair at your home in Shadoxhurst
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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.
