Wood floor repair in Althorpe, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Common call-outs are for burns and scratches from furniture and pets, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

How to compare quotes

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Althorpe

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Althorpe?

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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Althorpe. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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