How we handle wood floor repair in Ainsdale

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ainsdale as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire floor

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PR8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
