About our wood floor repair in Exeter
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repairing versus replacing in Exeter
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One price list for the whole UK
- A fixed quote before you book

Exeter questions
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are there extra charges for Exeter?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Related advice
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Exeter, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
