Wood floor repair in Totley, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Totley and across Derbyshire. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Repair or replace in Totley?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Take a look at our full price list.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
