Wood floor repair at your home in Arlingham
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We’re frequently asked to fix burns and dents from dropped items, across engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repairing versus replacing in Arlingham
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. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
