Book wood floor repair in Bentham

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Bentham clients choose us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

  • Colour-matched on site

How we handle wood floor repair in Bentham

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you are in Bentham and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Bentham questions

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gloucestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
