Wood floor repair for Freshbrook homes

Wood floor repair at your home in Freshbrook

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Freshbrook: your questions answered

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Laminate flooring
  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

How to compare quotes

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
