Near you in Glais
Typical jobs here are in homes near The Globe Inn, Glais Primary School and Church of Saint John the Baptist. The nearest railway station is Llansamlet station, roughly 2 miles south. Nearby you will also find Mound (1.3 miles east) and Welsh Museum of Fire (2.2 miles south-east). For a walk, there’s Pluck Lake and Cwm Clydach RSPB Reserve.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Glais
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole floor
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Glais
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items

Glais questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Swansea. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you come to Glais?
We do. We send a technician to Glais for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
