- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

About our wood floor repair in Lofthouse Gate
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Lofthouse Gate
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What areas do you cover?
All of Leeds, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do you cover Lofthouse Gate?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Lofthouse Gate from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Engineered wood
