Wood floor repair near Bolton

Repair or replace in Bolton?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are

Wood floor repair at your home in Bolton

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Common call-outs are for chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Common questions in Bolton

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

What areas do you cover?

All of Bolton, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Bolton

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
