Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Engineered wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Questions from Lepton

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Kirklees. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What affects the price in Lepton

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
