Wood floor repair at your home in Canonmills
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and burns.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Canonmills
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
