How we handle wood floor repair in Hexham
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most frequently call us about gouges from moving appliances and burns.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Hexham
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hexham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
