Wood floor repair in Stretton, done in place
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- 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
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Stretton
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Questions from Stretton
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Stretton?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
