How we handle wood floor repair in Skellingthorpe
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and burns.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

FAQs for Skellingthorpe
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How we price wood floor repair

- How many areas need work

- The material and finish
- The type of damage

Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
