Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colour-matched on site
- Fixed prices from your photos

Wood floor repair in Clouston, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for chipped board edges and burns, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

FAQs for Clouston
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Are there extra charges for Clouston?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you need wood floor repair in Clouston?
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Look out for any of the following:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
Questions to ask before you book
- Aftercare advice
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
