Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We work on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and chipped board edges.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Fox Royd: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

- Scratches from furniture and pets
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
