Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Wood floor repair in Hele, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hele. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you are in Hele and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage

Repair or replace in Hele?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hele. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Hele, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
