Wood Floor Repair in Shropshire

Wood floor repair at your home in Shropshire

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Our repair technicians work on laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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.

Cost

Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What’s near Shrewsbury

Typical jobs here are in homes near St Mary's Church, Shrewsbury High School and The Crown Inn, among other places. Nearby too are Wakeman School (under half a mile south) and Coleham Primary School (under half a mile south). There’s a railway station in Shrewsbury itself: Shrewsbury station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Clive House Museum (within half a mile south-west) and Darwin Shopping Centre (under half a mile west). Not far away are Bomere Pool and Haughmond Hill.

What affects the price in Shropshire

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Shropshire get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place.

Comparing quotes

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What we are called out for in Shropshire

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shropshire

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
