How we handle wood floor repair in Uplands

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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.

What we work on

  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Engineered wood
  • Laminate flooring

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Related advice

Do you need wood floor repair in Uplands?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Look out for these signs:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Uplands. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Take a look at our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
