Wood floor repair in Hoddlesden without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Hoddlesden questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Hoddlesden?

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Hoddlesden, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
