Wood floor repair in Coleman's Hatch, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the area is dry

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When to call us in Coleman's Hatch
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
What your quote should include
