Wood floor repair in Millerhill without replacing anything
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and burns.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Millerhill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
