Wood & laminate floor repair in Hanbury, Staffordshire
Our technicians come to Hanbury for scratch, dent, chip and burn repairs to wood and laminate floors. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Wood floor repair at your home in Hanbury
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and burns.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hanbury and across Staffordshire. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hanbury as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Hanbury
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood

Common questions in Hanbury
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the damaged area.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
