Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wattisfield as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Wood floor repair in Wattisfield without replacing anything
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can normally put it right, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Wattisfield. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
Questions from Wattisfield
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
