Wood floor repair near Barnston

Wood floor repair in Barnston, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, we can generally put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Repairing versus replacing in Barnston

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually.

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Barnston

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Barnston questions

Do you cover the entire of Wirral?

The entire UK, including all of Wirral. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there any odour?

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

Do you come to Barnston?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Barnston. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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