Trusted wood floor repair in Broomhouse

Landlords, agents and businesses in Broomhouse

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Wood floor repair in Broomhouse, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about burns and gouges from moving appliances.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Questions from Broomhouse

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, 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

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

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

Related advice

What affects the price in Broomhouse

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Broomhouse. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

Most customers in Broomhouse get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.
