Wood floor repair for Bassett homes

How we handle wood floor repair in Bassett

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Repair or replace in Bassett?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bassett

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

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
