What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Silverhill, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How we handle wood floor repair in Silverhill
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price 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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
