Wood floor repair in Shrewsbury without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Shrewsbury. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. 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.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One price list for the entire UK

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Signs you need wood floor repair in Shrewsbury

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Shrewsbury

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

FAQs for Shrewsbury

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
