Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Wood floor repair at your home in Sutton St James
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. If you’re dealing with chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Sutton St James
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What affects the price in Sutton St James
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job without visiting.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PE12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
