Advice
About our wood floor repair in Ifieldwood
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We regularly repair laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood, and people most often call us about gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

FAQs for Ifieldwood
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you come to Ifieldwood?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ifieldwood from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What affects the price in Ifieldwood
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
