How we handle wood floor repair in Setley
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our technicians work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about gouges from moving appliances and burns.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Questions from Setley
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
