Wood floor repair in Shawell, done in place
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are often asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, across laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Shawell: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you cover the entire of Leicestershire?
We work UK-wide, so Shawell is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Should you replace it?
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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What affects the price in Shawell
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
There is 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 will reply with a fixed quote.
