How we handle wood floor repair in Yeoford
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. If you’re dealing with gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Yeoford: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can I fix it myself?
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 pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When to call us in Yeoford
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How to look after the finish
For landlords and businesses
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.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
