Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How we handle wood floor repair in Balscote
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and burns.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Balscote
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.

What else we do in Balscote
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
