Wood floor repair in West Melbury 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 be honest about that. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, in solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Melbury as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair

Your questions about wood floor repair in West Melbury
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you cover West Melbury?
We do. Repair technicians travel to West Melbury from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
