How we handle wood floor repair in Grove
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and burns, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Grove, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
