Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and people most often call us about burns and chipped board edges.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

What a repair can’t fix

Can I fix it myself?
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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Blackboys, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
FAQs for Blackboys
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Blackboys?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is repairing better than replacing?
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.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you come to Blackboys?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Blackboys from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blackboys as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
