Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Wood floor repair in Little Chester without replacing anything
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and people most frequently call us about burns and dents from dropped items.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Little Chester and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
