Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Wood floor repair in Cliffe Woods without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. If you’re dealing with gouges from moving appliances and burns, we can help, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole floor
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Cliffe Woods, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Cliffe Woods questions
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you come to Cliffe Woods?
We do. Technicians travel to Cliffe Woods from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
