Wood floor repair at your home in Ouston
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and burns, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ouston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole floor
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
Your questions about wood floor repair in Ouston
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How much does wood floor repair cost in Ouston?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DH2 postcode.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Ouston
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairing versus replacing in Ouston
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
