What we’re called out for in Melcombe Regis
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Related advice
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
