Wood Floor Repair for Tilgate homes

- Repairs from £95
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
Wood floor repair in Tilgate, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. If you’re dealing with dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Common problems we fix in Tilgate
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
The things customers normally mention when they call are:
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
Before you book anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if they find more damage
- Aftercare advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colour-matched on site
- No need to remove anything
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tilgate. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
