Wood floor repair at your home in Busby
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and chipped board edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Repairing versus replacing in Busby
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Busby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
