How we handle wood floor repair in Penny Bridge
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Our technicians work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Penny Bridge
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- 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. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
