How we handle wood floor repair in Toogs
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What else we do in Toogs
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
Common problems we fix in Toogs
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items

Does the room need clearing?
