Wood floor repair at your home in Somerby

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We are often asked to fix dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Somerby clients choose us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Somerby

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
  • Laminate flooring

What affects the price in Somerby

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
