About our wood floor repair in East Donyland
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We are often asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common questions in East Donyland
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
