Arkley questions

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Arkley?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

About our wood floor repair in Arkley

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you are dealing with burns and dents from dropped items, we can help, on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Arkley use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need wood floor repair in Arkley

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

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

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

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Arkley clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our pricing.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole floor

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
