Wood floor repair for Caerhendy homes

Landlord and trade work in Caerhendy

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Wood floor repair in Caerhendy without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and burns.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Common questions in Caerhendy

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Do I need to be at home?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you cover Caerhendy?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Caerhendy and the rest of Neath Port Talbot. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Caerhendy. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
