Wood floor repair at your home in Linton
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Linton: your questions answered
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Are there extra charges for Linton?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How much does wood floor repair cost in Linton?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Details of any past repairs
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
