Wood & laminate floor repair in Somerby, Lincolnshire
Problem with your floor in Somerby? We repair it in place, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Wood floor repair at your home in Somerby
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. If you are dealing with dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Somerby: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you come to Somerby?
We do. Technicians travel to Somerby from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Somerby as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
