Wood floor repair at your home in Broad Oak

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We are frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and burns, on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What wood floor repair costs

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Broad Oak

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broad Oak use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Broad Oak: your questions answered

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
