Wood floor repair in Shelton Lock without replacing anything
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, across solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- One picture of the whole floor
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
