What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Wood floor repair in Tarvin Sands without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We regularly repair solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and dents from dropped items.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Tarvin Sands as everywhere else we work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Questions from Tarvin Sands
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Cheshire West and Chester, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 won’t last.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Tarvin Sands. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
