For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
About our wood floor repair in Magdalen Laver
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. If you are dealing with burns and gouges from moving appliances, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
In a village like Magdalen Laver, floors in older homes may be original, which are worth keeping. We repair rather than replace.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

For a rural address like Magdalen Laver, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the wood floor repair, so there’s no second trip.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairing versus replacing in Magdalen Laver
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Replacement in Magdalen Laver means trades, travel and waste removal, while wood floor repair is one trip.
Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
