About our wood floor repair in Thorpe Common
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlord and trade work in Thorpe Common
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Can I fix it myself?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What affects the price in Thorpe Common
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Thorpe Common, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
