Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Only from the area we’re working on.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you hold any accreditations?

Wood floor repair in The Common without replacing anything
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in The Common and across Essex. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
