How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to South Walsham. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common questions in South Walsham
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?
All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

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 works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
