Wood floor repair in Barepot without replacing anything
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. If you’re dealing with gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can help.
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.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- 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
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Landlord and trade work in Barepot
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it 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 generally cheaper.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Barepot. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
