Trusted wood floor repair in Cambridge

Wood floor repair at your home in Cambridge

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Cambridge and across Cambridgeshire. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

When to call us in Cambridge

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges

Before booking anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

Your questions about wood floor repair in Cambridge

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Cambridge?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Cambridge clients choose us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Take a look at our pricing.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CB1 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
