Wood floor repair in Skillington without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Common call-outs are for burns and chipped board edges, on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace in Skillington?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Skillington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
