Wood floor repair in Garden Suburb without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Typical jobs include chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Garden Suburb. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Garden Suburb, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Garden Suburb questions
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are there extra charges for Garden Suburb?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Repairing versus replacing in Garden Suburb
