Wood floor repair at your home in Thorpe Marriott
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from furniture and pets and burns.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Thorpe Marriott

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
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.
What else we do in Thorpe Marriott
Common questions in Thorpe Marriott
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you cover the whole of Norfolk?
We cover the entire UK, including Thorpe Marriott and the rest of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
