How we handle wood floor repair in Denshaw
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Our repair technicians work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

When to call us in Denshaw

- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- When it can be used again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Denshaw. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Denshaw questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.

Here we cover the OL3 postcode area. That includes homes on Delph Road, Buckley Drive and Huddersfield Road. Neighbouring places we cover include Old Tame (1 mile south-west), Heights (1 mile south), Grange (1 mile south-east), Linfitts (1 mile south) and Grains Bar (1 mile south-west).

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
