How we handle wood floor repair in Dufton
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Related advice
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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 before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CA16 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- No extra charge for your area
