About our wood floor repair in Shottenden
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and burns.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Shottenden. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
