Wood floor repair at your home in Forest Hill

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for chipped board edges and burns, across solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

Common questions in Forest Hill

Do you come to Forest Hill?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Forest Hill. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Do you hold any accreditations?

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Forest Hill?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole floor and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Our hiring checklist

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your OX33 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
