Wood floor repair in Northlea, done in place
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 burns and gouges from moving appliances, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Most jobs done in one visit
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Your questions about wood floor repair in Northlea
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What else we do in Northlea

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
