Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and burns, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Cannon's Green: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Cannon's Green?

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

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
