Wood floor repair in Millthorpe without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, across laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Millthorpe questions
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are there extra charges for Millthorpe?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
