Trusted wood floor repair in Sawtry

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Wood floor repair in Sawtry without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Sawtry, 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Sawtry

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
