How we handle wood floor repair in Soulby
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.

What affects the price in Soulby
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole floor
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged 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. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One price list for the whole UK
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
