What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Wood floor repair at your home in Shelley
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most frequently call us about chipped board edges and burns.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Shelley, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shelley use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When to call us in Shelley
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
- Scratches from furniture and pets

Advice
Common questions in Shelley
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you cover Shelley?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Shelley and the rest of Essex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
