Repairing versus replacing in Porter's End
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Wood floor repair in Porter's End, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Our technicians work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and burns.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Porter's End from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What affects the price in Porter's End
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Porter's End, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
