Wood floor repair at your home in Powburn
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and gouges from moving appliances.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Powburn
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Questions from Powburn
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Powburn is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you come to Powburn?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Powburn for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
