Wood floor repair in Whitley Wood without replacing anything
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whitley Wood as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
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.
What we are called out for in Whitley Wood
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
- Burns
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price covers travel
Questions from Whitley Wood
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you work in Whitley Wood?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Whitley Wood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What else we do in Whitley Wood
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
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 pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire floor
- Details of any past repairs
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
