Wood floor repair in Coldstream without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets, we can help, on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Do you need wood floor repair in Coldstream?
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How to look after the finish
What a repair can’t fix
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
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Coldstream
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coldstream use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Coldstream
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Coldstream: your questions answered
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Do you come to Coldstream?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Coldstream and the rest of Northumberland. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Coldstream and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
