How we handle wood floor repair in Luxted
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for chipped board edges and burns, across laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can

Questions from Luxted
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Luxted included. Travel is included in the price.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Luxted
If you manage property in Luxted, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 generally the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire floor
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Luxted, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Common problems we fix in Luxted
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- How to care for the finish
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
