Wood floor repair in Blackney, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and burns.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the entire floor
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Blackney, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

FAQs for Blackney
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT6 postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
