Wood floor repair in Arrington, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We’re often asked to fix dents from dropped items and burns, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. 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 pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Arrington
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Arrington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
