Wood floor repair at your home in Kingsholm
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and people most frequently call us about gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

What affects the price in Kingsholm
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For a price in Kingsholm, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Common questions in Kingsholm
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work in Kingsholm?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Kingsholm. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
When to call us in Kingsholm

What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended

- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
If you manage property in Kingsholm, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairing versus replacing in Kingsholm
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We do not 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.
