Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we handle wood floor repair in Lower Caversham
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, in solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lower Caversham. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lower Caversham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
