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 leaves the floor down. 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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thornage. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water

  • Underfloor damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
