How we handle wood floor repair in Bachelor's Bump

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you’re dealing with chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, we can help, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bachelor's Bump as everywhere else we work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What affects the price in Bachelor's Bump

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace in Bachelor's Bump?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour-matched on site

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Bachelor's Bump

For anyone letting property in or around Bachelor's Bump, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
