Our hiring checklist

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your HG4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Common questions in West Tanfield

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Are there extra charges for West Tanfield?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

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.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for West Tanfield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
