About our wood floor repair in Birdholme

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

10 questions to ask before you book

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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 about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

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

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, 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 does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Questions from Birdholme

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Birdholme?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
