Questions from Diseworth
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include 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.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Do you cover the entire of Leicestershire?
We work UK-wide, so Diseworth is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
About our wood floor repair in Diseworth
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and burns.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Diseworth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, 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.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DE74 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Diseworth. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire floor
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most clients in Diseworth get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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 typically cheaper.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
