Laughton: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your DN21 postcode.
Do you cover Laughton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Laughton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Wood floor repair at your home in Laughton
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you are dealing with burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can help, on solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DN21 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repairing versus replacing in Laughton
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Laughton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
