Wood Floor Repair for Scole homes
Scratch, dent, chip and burn repairs to wood and laminate floors in Scole, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Wood floor repair at your home in Scole
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Scole
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Scole. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not 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
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
