Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: 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.

About our wood floor repair in Ackergillshore
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Your questions about wood floor repair in Ackergillshore
Do I have to be there?

What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.

- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
