Advice
About our wood floor repair in Runwell
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most often call us about burns and dents from dropped items.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

What else we do in Runwell
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Landlord and trade work in Runwell
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Common questions in Runwell
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you come to Runwell?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Runwell. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
