Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Details of any past repairs
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
How we handle wood floor repair in Shelthorpe
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are burns and chipped board edges.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicestershire. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?

Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
