Wood floor repair in Kilmelford, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 before booking.
What we work on
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Kilmelford, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Kilmelford: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
