Wood floor repair in Cretingham without replacing anything
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are frequently asked to fix burns and dents from dropped items, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Cretingham
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Your questions about wood floor repair in Cretingham
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Cretingham?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you work in Cretingham?
We do. We send a technician to Cretingham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Landlord and trade work in Cretingham
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why Cretingham customers choose us
- No extra charge for your area
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
