Trusted wood floor repair in Holden

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why Holden clients choose us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

How we handle wood floor repair in Holden

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and burns, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood

What affects the price in Holden

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Holden questions

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Holden, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
