About our wood floor repair in Middlemarsh
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.
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 up spills promptly.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Middlemarsh. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Common problems we fix in Middlemarsh
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Gouges from moving appliances

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage

Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
