Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Walker and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Take a look at our pricing.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Newcastle upon Tyne and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When to call us in Walker
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Look out for these signs:
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
Questions to ask before you book

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Walker. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire floor
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

FAQs for Walker
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
