How we handle wood floor repair in Larne
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and burns.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Larne

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
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 price.
Do you need wood floor repair in Larne?
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Larne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
