How we handle wood floor repair in Shillinglee
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Shillinglee and across Surrey. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Shillinglee questions
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Shillinglee. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Shillinglee?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Repair or replace in Shillinglee?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
