Wood floor repair in Ravelston without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our technicians work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood, and people most frequently call us about dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Ravelston, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Ravelston questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Are there extra charges for Ravelston?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
