Wood floor repair in Paulton without replacing anything
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood, and people most often call us about burns and gouges from moving appliances.
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.

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
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. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Paulton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Paulton: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access

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’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When to call us in Paulton
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
- Burns
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Aftercare advice
What affects the price in Paulton
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
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.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BS39 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
