The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Wood floor repair in Combs without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We’re frequently asked to fix dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Combs use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
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
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
Repairing versus replacing in Combs
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
