About our wood floor repair in Dalton-in-Furness
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can usually put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

What we work on
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
What affects the price in Dalton-in-Furness
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
