Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Wood floor repair in Hindpool without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and burns, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Hindpool. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
