Wood floor repair at your home in Blake End
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and people most often call us about chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Blake End questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How much does wood floor repair cost in Blake End?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Blake End.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole floor
- Any details about the material
For a price in Blake End, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
