Wood floor repair for Broadclyst homes

Wood floor repair in Broadclyst, done in place

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are often asked to fix dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When to call us in Broadclyst

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

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Broadclyst. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Broadclyst

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Broadclyst and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
