Trusted wood floor repair in Brotherton

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Brotherton. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How we handle wood floor repair in Brotherton

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We’re frequently asked to fix burns and scratches from furniture and pets, across engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

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

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

When to call us in Brotherton

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Questions from Brotherton

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Are you accredited?

Do you cover the whole of Wakefield?

What do you need from me?

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
