Wood floor repair in Trowley Bottom without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can generally put it right, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood alike.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Questions from Trowley Bottom
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Trowley Bottom.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we are working on.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Common problems we fix in Trowley Bottom
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Look out for these signs:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Repair or replace in Trowley Bottom?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
