Advice
How we handle wood floor repair in Somercotes
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and burns, we can help, on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood alike.
Every job is backed 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 spills straight away.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Somercotes. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole floor
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Somercotes
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Are there extra charges for Somercotes?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What else we do in Somercotes
Repairing versus replacing in Somercotes
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Somercotes. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
