How we handle wood floor repair in Stoke Lyne
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and burns.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Stoke Lyne
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Most clients in Stoke Lyne 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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Stoke Lyne questions
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Stoke Lyne.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
There is 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
