Wood floor repair in Wix without replacing anything
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Landlord and trade work in Wix
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Repair or replace in Wix?

How quickly can you book me in?

How it works
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. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often 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, a professional repair is worth it.
