How we handle wood floor repair in Wantage
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We are often asked to fix chipped board edges and burns, across engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What else we do in Wantage
Your questions about wood floor repair in Wantage
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged 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. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wantage. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Get a quote
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you’re in Wantage and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

- Boards that have lifted or warped
