About our wood floor repair in Lower Bockhampton
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s burns and dents from dropped items, we can normally put it right, on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lower Bockhampton and across Dorset. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lower Bockhampton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Lower Bockhampton: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.

Repair or replace in Lower Bockhampton?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
