Wood floor repair in Cann

Cann questions

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Do you cover the whole of Dorset?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Cann. Prices do not change with location.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need wood floor repair in Cann?

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Comparing quotes

  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
