About our wood floor repair in Hillside
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Typical jobs include burns and chipped board edges, in solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What affects the price in Hillside
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry

Repairing versus replacing in Hillside
Swapping a damaged 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. 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.
