How we handle wood floor repair in Rusher's Cross

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We regularly repair engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Rusher's Cross: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Do you cover Rusher's Cross?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Rusher's Cross. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are there extra charges for Rusher's Cross?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need wood floor repair in Rusher's Cross?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you’re in Rusher's Cross and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
