Wood floor repair in Mill Common without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Common questions in Mill Common
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole floor
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Mill Common
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
