When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
