About our wood floor repair in Lindsell
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are burns and gouges from moving appliances.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we are called out for in Lindsell
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Burns
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Lindsell: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you cover Lindsell?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lindsell. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Lindsell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
