How we handle wood floor repair in Box

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, in laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Carmarthenshire. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Repairing versus replacing in Box

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t 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.

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
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Box. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Box questions

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Box, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
