Wood floor repair in Shelf, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Shelf clients choose us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

FAQs for Shelf

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Shelf?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shelf as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

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.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
