We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cothill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
About our wood floor repair in Cothill
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and people most frequently call us about dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cothill as everywhere else we work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Repairing versus replacing in Cothill
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
