About our wood floor repair in Garswood
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can help, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting 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 to call us in Garswood
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
Before you book anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Landlords, agents and businesses in Garswood
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Garswood use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What affects the price in Garswood
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Garswood, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Garswood: your questions answered
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
