How we handle wood floor repair in Deighton
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, in laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

FAQs for Deighton
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are there extra charges for Deighton?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
