DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we handle wood floor repair in West Bretton
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and burns, on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

West Bretton: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
All of Wakefield, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
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.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What else we do in West Bretton
When a repair is not the answer

- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in West Bretton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Usually one visit, start to finish

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
