Wood floor repair at your home in Lode
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from furniture and pets and burns.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace in Lode?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Lode
- We leave the room as we found it
- No need to remove anything
- No extra charge for your area
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
