Wood floor repair at your home in Basildon
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. We regularly repair laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most often call us about dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.
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 spills straight away.
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SS16 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Basildon
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Colour-matched on site

Your questions about wood floor repair in Basildon
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
