Wood floor repair at your home in Bucknell

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Bucknell

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. 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 happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bucknell. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bucknell. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
