Wood floor repair at your home in Goodshaw
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, in laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlord and trade work in Goodshaw
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Questions from Goodshaw
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Goodshaw
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire floor
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
