Wood floor repair at your home in Mawdlam
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Mawdlam: your questions answered
Do you cover the whole of Bridgend?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Mawdlam. Our prices are the same everywhere.
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.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Mawdlam
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole floor
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
