About our wood floor repair in Little Woolgarston

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, we can usually put it right, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Little Woolgarston questions

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Take a look at our pricing.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
