- Repairs from £95
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Wood floor repair in Isham, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Isham
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Questions from Isham
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Isham. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Should you replace it?
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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
