DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
About our wood floor repair in Marthall
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. If you’re dealing with burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can generally put it right, on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood alike.
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 spills right away.

FAQs for Marthall
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
