Wood floor repair in Pilton without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and burns.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Pilton
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pilton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed quote.
