Wood floor repair in Balfour without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.
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.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, 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 frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
FAQs for Balfour
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Balfour?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What affects the price in Balfour
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Balfour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Balfour. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
