About our wood floor repair in Yardley Wood
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, across laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
