Wood & laminate floor repair in Tring, Hertfordshire
Problem with your floor in Tring? We repair it in place, match it on site and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Wood floor repair in Tring, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, we can generally put it right, on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
