About our wood floor repair in Abbotsbury

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We are frequently asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, across engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DT3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Abbotsbury: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Abbotsbury.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Abbotsbury?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you cover Abbotsbury?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Abbotsbury. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Repair or replace in Abbotsbury?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abbotsbury

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Abbotsbury as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Abbotsbury. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
