How we handle wood floor repair in Sawley
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BB7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Do you need wood floor repair in Sawley?
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
- Burns
- Scratches from furniture and pets
Questions to ask before booking
- How your room will be protected
- How to care for the finish
- Who turns up on the day
- If travel is included in the price
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repairing versus replacing in Sawley
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
