How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Woodham Walter, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairing versus replacing in Woodham Walter

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
