DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How we handle wood floor repair in Dorchester
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can help, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- A fixed quote before you book

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you’re in Dorchester and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
