DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. 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 frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our wood floor repair in Linfitts
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Linfitts
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What affects the price in Linfitts
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole floor
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repairing versus replacing in Linfitts
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
