Wood floor repair in Handley, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood, and people most frequently call us about gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Handley: your questions answered
Do you work in Handley?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Handley. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
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. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
What affects the price in Handley
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire floor
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your S45 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
