Wood floor repair in Holton, done in place
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Holton questions
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Holton is covered. Prices do not change with location.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are there extra charges for Holton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What else we do in Holton
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Holton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole floor
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What we are called out for in Holton
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Look out for these signs:
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
Before you book anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
