Wood floor repair in Burgh-by-Sands

Wood floor repair in Burgh-by-Sands without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Repairing versus replacing in Burgh-by-Sands

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burgh-by-Sands

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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
