Trusted wood floor repair in Arkwright Town

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Arkwright Town use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Wood floor repair at your home in Arkwright Town

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper 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.

Arkwright Town questions

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?

The entire UK, including all of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is there a guarantee?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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 recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
