About wood floor repair in Poole
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We’re often asked to fix burns and scratches from furniture and pets, in solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Landmarks near Poole
Around Poole, we work in homes near St Clements, Uplands School and St Edward's Roman Catholic/Church of England School and the streets around them. Other local landmarks include Poole Park (1 mile south-west) and Ocean Academy Poole (within half a mile south-west). The closest station to Poole is Parkstone (Dorset) station, about 0.8 miles south-east of the centre. Further afield, we also cover the area around Big Four Railway Museum & Model Centre (3.7 miles east) and Brownsea Castle (3 miles south). For a walk, there’s Beacon Hill and Ham Common (LNR).
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down.
What your quote should include
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the price covers travel
- How the colour is matched
- Aftercare advice
How the damage happens
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Dents from dropped items
- Chipped board edges
