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. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in South Kensington as everywhere else we work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

South Kensington questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you cover the entire of Greater London?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
What affects the price in South Kensington
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to South Kensington. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most customers in South Kensington get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we’re called out for in South Kensington
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Look out for these signs:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items

Repairing versus replacing in South Kensington
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
