About our wood floor repair in Hessett
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for burns and scratches from furniture and pets, across solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Common questions in Hessett
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
