What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Tilts

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why Tilts customers choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Tilts: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Tilts?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
