How we handle wood floor repair in Inkpen
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Common call-outs are for chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
Repair or replace in Inkpen?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- We leave the room as we found it
- No need to remove anything

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inkpen use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
