How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How we handle wood floor repair in Whitecross

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Warrington. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we’re called out for in Whitecross

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns

Comparing quotes

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whitecross as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One price list for the entire UK

See our prices page.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
