Wood floor repair at your home in Kelton
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. If you’re dealing with dents from dropped items and burns, we can normally put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Kelton
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kelton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you’re in Kelton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Kelton questions
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.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repair or replace in Kelton?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
