About our wood floor repair in Wokingham
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most frequently call us about gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.
Wokingham: your questions answered
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Wokingham?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What affects the price in Wokingham

- What the surface is made of
