Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we handle wood floor repair in Elswick
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and burns.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Elswick. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole floor
If you are in Elswick and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Elswick questions
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you cover Elswick?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Elswick from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No need to remove anything
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
