Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why The Haven clients choose us

Landlord and trade work in The Haven

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Our hiring checklist

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for The Haven. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
