Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Wood floor repair in Sturton le Steeple without replacing anything
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 are often asked to fix dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

How quickly can you book me in?

Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sturton le Steeple use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
