Our hiring checklist

Wood floor repair at your home in Ardley End

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common questions in Ardley End

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Ardley End?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area

See our full price list.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
