Wood Flooring Repair — Scratches, Gaps & Damage Fixed

Solid wood and engineered wood floors are a significant investment. When they get scratched, gouged, or worn, the instinct might be to sand and refinish the whole floor — an expensive and disruptive process. Shazam Repairs provides professional wood flooring repair that fixes localised damage invisibly, without sanding or relaying, extending the life of your floor for a fraction of the cost.

Wood Floor Damage We Repair

Our wood floor repair specialists fix deep scratches and scuffs, gouges and dents from dropped objects, cracks and splits in boards, gaps between planks, water damage and staining, burn marks, and worn or faded finish in high-traffic areas. We work on solid wood floors, engineered wood, parquet, and hardwood strip flooring.

How Wood Floor Repair Works

Minor scratches and scuffs are colour-matched and filled using specialist wood repair compounds. Deeper gouges are built up layer by layer to restore the correct surface level, then colour-matched to blend seamlessly with the surrounding wood. Where individual boards are beyond repair, we can replace single boards without lifting the rest of the floor — far cheaper than full relaying.

Wood Floor Repair Cost

Wood flooring repair typically costs £80–£250 depending on the extent and nature of the damage. This compares favourably with the cost of sanding and refinishing an entire floor — which costs £15–£30 per square metre and takes 2–3 days of work and drying time, during which the room is unusable. For localised damage, repair is faster, cheaper, and less disruptive.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can laminate, vinyl or wood floor damage be repaired without replacing boards?

Yes. Scratches, gouges, chips and burns in laminate, vinyl, engineered wood and solid wood floors can usually be repaired on-site in a single visit. We colour-match the repair to your existing floor finish.

Do you repair scratches on engineered hardwood floors?

Yes. We use specialist fillers and finishing compounds for engineered and solid hardwood. Deep scratches and gouges can be filled and refinished so they blend with the surrounding boards.

Can burns in vinyl or laminate flooring be repaired?

Yes. Cigarette burns and scorch marks in vinyl and laminate can usually be repaired to an acceptable cosmetic standard using colour-matched filler compounds. Severe burns may require a localised section replacement.

How long do floor repairs take?

Most localised floor repairs (scratches, chips, burns) take one to three hours on-site. You can usually walk on the repaired area the same day.
