What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Wood floor repair in Shipley, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We are frequently asked to fix dents from dropped items and burns, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Shipley and across West Sussex. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Repair or replace in Shipley?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Shipley
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What we are called out for in Shipley
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
