Wood floor repair in Folly Gate without replacing anything
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and people most frequently call us about gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Common questions in Folly Gate
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you work in Folly Gate?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Folly Gate from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t 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.
Materials we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood

What else we do in Folly Gate
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Folly Gate. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: 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.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can give you a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
