Wood floor repair at your home in Broughton

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, in engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Common questions in Broughton

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

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

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Choosing a repair company

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our full price list.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
