About our wood floor repair in Tiverton
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, in laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tiverton and across Devon. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Tiverton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
