- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive

Advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done 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.

Common questions in Lansdowne
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Bournemouth, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
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
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole floor
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BH1 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
