Wood floor repair in South Hinksey, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and burns, across engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for South Hinksey. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
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.
FAQs for South Hinksey
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I rent my home. Can I book you?

Do you come to South Hinksey?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to South Hinksey from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens next?

Repair or replace in South Hinksey?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

- Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’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
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Hinksey as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
