Wood floor repair at your home in Gilsland
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Gilsland questions
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Gilsland. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire floor
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- 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 before booking.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
