Hilsea: your questions answered
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Hilsea?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Wood floor repair in Hilsea, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, we can typically put it right, on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Hilsea
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hilsea. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Repairing versus replacing in Hilsea
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common problems we fix in Hilsea
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
