Surface Repair Service
Timber & Furniture Repair Melbourne
Timber floors and furniture take damage in the places people live and work — scratches, dents, gouges, chips, burn marks and water or stain damage. In many cases, the damage is localised and does not require the entire surface to be sanded back or replaced. Our floorboard repair service fixes the damaged boards in place, saving the cost and disruption of a full re-sand.
We repair the damaged area itself, then carefully match the surrounding colour, timber grain, texture and finish. Our timber repair work covers floors, furniture, veneer and other timber surfaces, including detailed colour matching for repairs that need to blend into the existing surface.
Floor scratch repair is one of our most requested jobs — from pet scratches and furniture drag marks to dents in high-traffic areas. We also regularly repair dents, scratches and heat or water marks on dining tables and other timber furniture, restoring the surface without refinishing the whole piece.

Matching
The detail that makes a repair blend
A repair is only as good as the match around it.
Colour
Timber tone is built up in layers to sit within the range of the surrounding boards rather than as a single flat colour.
Grain
Grain direction and figure are drawn back through the repair so the eye follows the board, not the patch.
Finish
The final coat is matched to the sheen of the existing floor, whether matte, satin or gloss.

FAQs
Common Questions
- Often, yes. Where the damage is localised, we repair the affected area and blend it into the surrounding boards. Widespread wear across an entire floor is usually better suited to a full sand and re-coat.
