Wood floor repair at your home in Clifton
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We are often asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Clifton
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What affects the price in Clifton
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Clifton. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole floor
For a price in Clifton, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Clifton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
