Wood floor repair in Alva

About our wood floor repair in Alva

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and people most frequently call us about chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Our hiring checklist

Alva: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Are there extra charges for Alva?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Alva

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our prices page.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alva as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Alva, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

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

What affects the price in Alva

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Alva. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
