Wood floor repair at your home in Ormathwaite
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people get in touch are burns and dents from dropped items.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Questions from Ormathwaite
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
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.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
