Wood floor repair at your home in Torthorwald
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Our technicians work on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most frequently call us about dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

What else we do in Torthorwald
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Everything repaired in place
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Only from the area we’re working on.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

What affects the price in Torthorwald
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Torthorwald. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
