FAQs for Whitchurch
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Wood floor repair at your home in Whitchurch
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, in solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Whitchurch. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How the visit works

- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
