The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Wood floor repair at your home in Sherington
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our technicians work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in Sherington and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

Common questions in Sherington
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. 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 will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Milton Keynes, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
