Wood floor repair at your home in Higham
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. If you’re dealing with dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, we can usually put it right, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

When to call us in Higham
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Look out for any of the following:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if they find more damage
- What prep work is covered
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Laminate flooring

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Higham questions
Are there extra charges for Higham?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Repair or replace in Higham?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
