Wood floor repair at your home in Lipson
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are frequently asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.
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.

Common questions in Lipson
Do you come to Lipson?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Lipson and the rest of Plymouth. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
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.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Plymouth.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What affects the price in Lipson
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lipson. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Lipson, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
