Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Walkford, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Common questions in Walkford
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BH23 postcode.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
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.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What we are called out for in Walkford
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
- Scratches from furniture and pets
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Who turns up on the day
Landlord and trade work in Walkford
If you manage property in Walkford, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walkford use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Laminate flooring
