About our wood floor repair in The Wisp
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in The Wisp as everywhere else we work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Repairing versus replacing in The Wisp
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including The Wisp. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in The Wisp
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around The Wisp, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
