Wood floor repair for Ashingdon homes

Wood floor repair at your home in Ashingdon

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Our hiring checklist

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Ashingdon

Will there be a smell?

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

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you come to Ashingdon?

We do. Technicians travel to Ashingdon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Landlord and trade work in Ashingdon

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Ashingdon?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
