Machen: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Machen?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Wood floor repair in Machen, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We are frequently asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Machen. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- 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
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Machen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
