About our wood floor repair in Leighton
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and chipped board edges.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What affects the price in Leighton
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire floor
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
