DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Wood floor repair in Balstonia, done in place
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
