Wood floor repair in Widdrington, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and people most frequently call us about gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Widdrington questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What affects the price in Widdrington
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 normally cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Widdrington
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northumberland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
