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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Wood floor repair in Topsham, done in place
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole floor
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
