Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Wood floor repair at your home in Great Carlton
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

What affects the price in Great Carlton
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Great Carlton questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you work in Great Carlton?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Great Carlton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Carlton
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Carlton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
