Wood floor repair at your home in Clawthorpe
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and burns, we can generally put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Advice
FAQs for Clawthorpe
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work in Clawthorpe?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Clawthorpe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 often lifts.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
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.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LA6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
