Wood floor repair at your home in Hempstead
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances.
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 up spills promptly.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Hempstead
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Do you work in Hempstead?
We do. Technicians travel to Hempstead from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What affects the price in Hempstead
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole floor
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we’re called out for in Hempstead
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- How long it needs to cure
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
