Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. If you are dealing with chipped board edges and burns, we can help.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Chignall Smealy. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
