Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Wood floor repair in Little Ellingham, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NR17 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
