How we handle wood floor repair in Westergate
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you’re dealing with dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, we can normally put it right.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Westergate. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
