Wood floor repair in Britannia, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Britannia as everywhere else we work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Britannia. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
If you’re in Britannia and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Britannia
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lancashire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Britannia use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
