Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

About our wood floor repair in Waddicombe
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We’re frequently asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and burns, across solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlord and trade work in Waddicombe
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waddicombe as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Waddicombe. The price reflects:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Questions from Waddicombe
Do you cover Waddicombe?
We do. Technicians travel to Waddicombe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
