What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Unthank: your questions answered
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One price list for the whole UK
- A fixed quote before you book
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
