About our wood floor repair in Etchinghill

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our repair technicians work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and burns.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Etchinghill clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Take a look at our full price list.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Etchinghill

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
