How we handle wood floor repair in Bow

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Work for landlords and builders

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

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t 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.

Surfaces we repair

  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate flooring

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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 reply with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Bow

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace in Bow?

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One visit for most repairs

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Bow

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
