About our wood floor repair in Starling's Green
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. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, we can typically put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repair or replace in Starling's Green?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Essex.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Starling's Green
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
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 send back a fixed quote and some dates.
