About our wood floor repair in Ainley Top

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Whether it’s burns and gouges from moving appliances, we can normally put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Ainley Top

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

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

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Engineered wood
  • Laminate flooring

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
