How we handle wood floor repair in Yawl
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with dents from dropped items and burns, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why Yawl clients choose us
- One-year guarantee on every repair

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
FAQs for Yawl
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover Yawl?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Yawl from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
