What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water

  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Benchill

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

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

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Benchill

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

When can you do it?

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

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Read our full price list.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
