Wood floor repair in Roberton, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are burns and dents from dropped items.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
For a price in Roberton, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Related advice
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Roberton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When to call us in Roberton
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
