Repairing versus replacing in East Briscoe
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. 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.

About our wood floor repair in East Briscoe
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Questions from East Briscoe
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so East Briscoe is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in East Briscoe?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
