Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Wood floor repair in Venn Ottery without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Our repair technicians work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Venn Ottery as everywhere else we work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Venn Ottery
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Repairing versus replacing in Venn Ottery
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Usually one visit, start to finish

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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.
Materials we work on in Venn Ottery
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
