About our wood floor repair in Aller Grove

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s burns and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Aller Grove questions

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlord and trade work in Aller Grove

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Do you need wood floor repair in Aller Grove?

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items

Comparing quotes

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
