About our wood floor repair in Foots Cray
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, we can typically put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Foots Cray. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
