Wood floor repair in Battledown, done in place

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for burns and gouges from moving appliances, in engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood.

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 up spills promptly.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 pictures.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Battledown

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
