Wood floor repair at your home in Higher Bartle
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
