What affects the price in Watersheddings
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Watersheddings, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Wood floor repair in Watersheddings without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Other services in Watersheddings
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When to call us in Watersheddings
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Look out for these signs:
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Watersheddings as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Watersheddings, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
