Repairing versus replacing in Newfoundpool
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Wood floor repair at your home in Newfoundpool
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can typically put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicester. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- 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
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
