Wood floor repair at your home in Downe
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Downe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Downe use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
What else we do in Downe
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Advice
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 material and finish
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
