We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We regularly repair laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Repairing versus replacing in Sonning Common
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
