Wood floor repair in Bircholt Forstal

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TN25 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

About our wood floor repair in Bircholt Forstal

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. If you’re dealing with burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can normally put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Bircholt Forstal questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Bircholt Forstal.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are there extra charges for Bircholt Forstal?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
