How we handle wood floor repair in Metham
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from furniture and pets and burns.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Riding of Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Metham questions
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
All of East Riding of Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
