What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Most clients in West Lyn get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How we handle wood floor repair in West Lyn
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Your questions about wood floor repair in West Lyn
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, 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
