About our wood floor repair in New Brancepeth
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

For landlords and businesses

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to New Brancepeth. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Repairing versus replacing in New Brancepeth
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

- Boards that have lifted or warped

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
