Wood floor repair in Hanscombe End, done in place
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’s the case. Our technicians work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and people most often call us about chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hanscombe End, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Repairing versus replacing in Hanscombe End
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
