About our wood floor repair in Hornsey
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We regularly repair solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people contact us are chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Landlord and trade work in Hornsey
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
