Your questions about wood floor repair in Brightwell Baldwin
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
When to call us in Brightwell Baldwin
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Burns
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Dents from dropped items
- Chipped board edges
Before you book anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
