How we handle wood floor repair in Whittonstall
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. If you’re dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What else we do in Whittonstall
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Whittonstall
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- How the colour is matched
- How soon you can use it again
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire floor
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, 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.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
