About our wood floor repair in Bourn

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We are frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and burns, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bourn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
