Wood floor repair in Inner Hope without replacing anything
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Advice
Common questions in Inner Hope
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Are there extra charges for Inner Hope?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Inner Hope and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
What affects the price in Inner Hope
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
