Wood floor repair at your home in St Marychurch
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are dents from dropped items and burns.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

When we’d advise against a repair

- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace in St Marychurch?

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
