Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Wood floor repair at your home in Caldbeck
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and people most often call us about chipped board edges and burns.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Common questions in Caldbeck
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Are there extra charges for Caldbeck?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
