What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Thornborough. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our prices page.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thornborough as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that won’t 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.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood

Common questions in Thornborough

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you come to Thornborough?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Thornborough from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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.

What we’re called out for in Thornborough

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
