Wood floor repair at your home in Hackman's Gate
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We’re often asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, in laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
