About our wood floor repair in Long Melford
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.
In a smaller place like Long Melford, most homes are houses or bungalows, so damage to a floor or tile stands out. It’s repaired where it is.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Repairing versus replacing in Long Melford
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. In a smaller place like Long Melford, getting trades out for a full replacement can take time to arrange. A repair needs just one visit.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why Long Melford clients choose us

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Your questions about wood floor repair in Long Melford
Do you work for schools and businesses in Long Melford?
Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. We will agree timings that suit the building.
Can you repair floors in a rental near Sudbury (Suffolk) station?
Yes, we frequently work between tenancies, and several addresses can be quoted together.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are there extra charges for Long Melford?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Long Melford
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
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’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Signs you need wood floor repair in Long Melford
