How we handle wood floor repair in Bourton
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood, and people most frequently call us about chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Bourton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Common questions in Bourton
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are there extra charges for Bourton?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bourton.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Bourton and the rest of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
