Wood floor repair in Appley

About our wood floor repair in Appley

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are frequently asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Appley questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

What a repair cannot fix

Repair or replace in Appley?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What affects the price in Appley

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Appley

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
