About our wood floor repair in Fownhope
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We’re often asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and burns, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Advice
Fownhope: your questions answered
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Fownhope?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HR1 postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot 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 before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
