About our wood floor repair in The Fence
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, we can typically put it right, on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your GL15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole floor
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Common questions in The Fence
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Landlords, agents and businesses in The Fence
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Fence use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When to call us in The Fence
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Gouges from moving appliances

- Scratches from furniture and pets
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
- What prep work is covered

When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
