Wood floor repair at your home in Aston
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and people most frequently call us about scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Should you replace it?
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 few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Aston
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
Before you book anyone
- How to look after the finish
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
If you’re in Aston and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Common questions in Aston
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you come to Aston?
We do. We send a technician to Aston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Aston
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
