How we handle wood floor repair in Summerseat
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Summerseat. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
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. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood

Summerseat: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
