Wood floor repair in Cargo, done in place
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Cargo and across Cumbria. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Repairing versus replacing in Cargo
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Your questions about wood floor repair in Cargo
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Cargo?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CA6 postcode.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
