Our hiring checklist

Wood floor repair in Barnwell, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Barnwell, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repairing versus replacing in Barnwell

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Take a look at our full price list.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  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

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Barnwell, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Engineered wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Solid wood

Barnwell questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
