Wood floor repair in New York without replacing anything
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

New York: your questions answered
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LN4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
