About our wood floor repair in Catley Lane Head
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from furniture and pets and burns.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
