Wood floor repair in Houghton on the Hill without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and burns, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Common questions in Houghton on the Hill
Are there extra charges for Houghton on the Hill?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Houghton on the Hill. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Work for landlords and builders
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.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leicestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
