Wood floor repair in Esh without replacing anything
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 is the case. We work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Esh. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- 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
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common questions in Esh
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DH7 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you come to Esh?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Esh for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
