About our wood floor repair in Chelmsford
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, in solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Advice
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace in Chelmsford?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Work done at your home or business
- Everything repaired in place
- One visit for most repairs

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
