Wood floor repair in Cotterstock without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include burns and dents from dropped items, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
