- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Shaftesbury. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- Any earlier repairs or coatings

FAQs for Shaftesbury
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dorset.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
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 leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Same prices wherever you are
- One-year guarantee on every repair

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Do you need wood floor repair in Shaftesbury?
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
The things customers normally mention when they call are:
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
