Advice
Wood floor repair at your home in Maxton
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional 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 normally the cheaper route.
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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Landlord and trade work in Maxton
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What else we do in Maxton
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually.
