What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Hogaland, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Your questions about wood floor repair in Hogaland
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Hogaland included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
