About our wood floor repair in Mail
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can usually put it right, on laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Mail
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Mail included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you come to Mail?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Mail from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
