Wood floor repair in Poverest, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.

Landlord and trade work in Poverest
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Poverest
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What areas do you cover?
All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Poverest. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- 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
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
