Wood floor repair in Gailey, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are burns and chipped board edges.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gailey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your ST19 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Gailey
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
