Wood floor repair for Bilton homes

Letting agents often send us pictures 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.

About our wood floor repair in Bilton

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and burns.

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

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Bilton questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across North Yorkshire.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
