Questions from Goathill
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you work in Goathill?
We do. We send a technician to Goathill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How we handle wood floor repair in Goathill
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you’re dealing with gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can normally put it right.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Goathill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire floor
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
