Wood floor repair in Melvich, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, 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 scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Repairing versus replacing in Melvich
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Typically one visit, start to finish

FAQs for Melvich
Do you cover Melvich?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Melvich. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Melvich is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
