How we handle wood floor repair in Charlestown
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with burns and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PL25 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Charlestown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charlestown as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t 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
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
