Wood floor repair in Winscales without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
What affects the price in Winscales
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Winscales. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

When we’d advise against a repair
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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
