How we handle wood floor repair in Brecon
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We’re frequently asked to fix dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, in solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Common questions in Brecon
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we are working on.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Brecon. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Brecon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
