Repairing versus replacing in Shiptonthorpe
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole floor
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Shiptonthorpe, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
