Wood floor repair in Derringstone without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are often asked to fix dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add 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 wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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’re paying for.

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can price the job.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

Landlord and trade work in Derringstone

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
