Wood floor repair at your home in Woodlands

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you are dealing with gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Repairing versus replacing in Woodlands

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Questions from Woodlands

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BH21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Woodlands, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Woodlands

  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire floor

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
