How we handle wood floor repair in Densole
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We are frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What affects the price in Densole
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Densole. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Densole, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
