Wood floor repair for Birdwell homes

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  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

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Wood floor repair in Birdwell without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Birdwell: your questions answered

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

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.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole floor

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
