Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 frequently lifts.
About our wood floor repair in New Copse
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, in engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
New Copse: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in New Copse
