Wood floor repair in Marston on Dove without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are often asked to fix dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.
You’re 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 right away.

Repair or replace in Marston on Dove?
Swapping a damaged 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Marston on Dove questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you work in Marston on Dove?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Marston on Dove and the rest of Derbyshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive

Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Marston on Dove
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole floor
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 you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
