Wood floor repair for Stanford Dingley homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

Wood floor repair in Stanford Dingley, done in place

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole floor
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
