The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

Wood floor repair in Balliveolan without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and burns, on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace in Balliveolan?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you 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.

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 typically the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Balliveolan

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

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