DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Godwinscroft: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
