About our wood floor repair in Limekilns

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Questions from Limekilns

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your KY11 postcode.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Limekilns. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
