How we handle wood floor repair in Lower Thorpe
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Our technicians work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

FAQs for Lower Thorpe
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Lower Thorpe. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
