Wood floor repair in Paddington, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole floor
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
