Trusted wood floor repair in Birchwood

About our wood floor repair in Birchwood

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We’re often asked to fix dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Birchwood

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with 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

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WA3 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

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

Materials we work on in Birchwood

  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
