Wood floor repair at your home in Minchinhampton
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a guarantee?

I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
