Wood floor repair near Banwen

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

About our wood floor repair in Banwen

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Typical jobs include burns and dents from dropped items, on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Banwen

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.

If you manage property in Banwen, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Banwen. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repairing versus replacing in Banwen

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
