Wood Floor Repair for Elephant and Castle homes
Problem with your floor in Elephant and Castle? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
About our wood floor repair in Elephant and Castle
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most frequently call us about gouges from moving appliances and burns.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Questions from Elephant and Castle

Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
What happens after I send photos?

Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
