Wood floor repair in Oldbury without replacing anything
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’s the case. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are burns and scratches from furniture and pets.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Oldbury
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood

Repair or replace in Oldbury?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Oldbury
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we are working on.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
