Wood floor repair at your home in Bowston
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and burns, across laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Bowston questions
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work in Bowston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bowston. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What affects the price in Bowston
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
