What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Thrapston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Wood floor repair at your home in Thrapston

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We work on laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

When to call us in Thrapston

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

The things clients normally mention when they call are:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Same prices wherever you are

Thrapston questions

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Thrapston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
