Wood floor repair in Burham, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and burns, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can price the job.

Advice

Common questions in Burham

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Do you cover Burham?

We do. We send a technician to Burham for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

When to call us in Burham

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Common reasons people in Burham contact us are:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Burns

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Burham

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
