How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Broxtowe, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Wood floor repair at your home in Broxtowe
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broxtowe as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Broxtowe. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Broxtowe get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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.

Broxtowe: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
