Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we handle wood floor repair in Standford
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with burns and dents from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Standford use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Common problems we fix in Standford
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
