Choosing a repair company

How we handle wood floor repair in Snape

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and burns, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Snape. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Snape, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Snape clients choose us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Everything repaired in place

See our prices page.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Laminate flooring
  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Engineered wood

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Snape: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Is it messy?

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

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are you accredited?

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

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
