How we handle wood floor repair in Donnington

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and burns.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Donnington and across Oxfordshire. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Donnington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole floor

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlord and trade work in Donnington

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
