How we handle wood floor repair in Brandon

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 gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, across solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

10 questions to ask before booking

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Brandon. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Brandon. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

If you’re in Brandon and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace in Brandon?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why Brandon clients choose us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our pricing.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Brandon

  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DH7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
