How we handle wood floor repair in Smalley
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most frequently call us about burns and gouges from moving appliances.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Smalley: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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 photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Smalley
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Smalley. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole floor
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can give you a fixed price.
