About our wood floor repair in East Rainton
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We’re often asked to fix burns and dents from dropped items, on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in East Rainton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Common problems we fix in East Rainton
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
Before you book anyone
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
