Wood floor repair in Cefngolau, done in place
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We’re often asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and burns, on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Questions from Cefngolau
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you cover the whole of Blaenau Gwent?
Everywhere in the UK, Cefngolau included. Travel is included in the price.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in Cefngolau
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Landlord and trade work in Cefngolau
If you manage property in Cefngolau, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cefngolau as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
About our accreditations · Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.
