Wood floor repair in Capel Llanilltern, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cardiff. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Common questions in Capel Llanilltern

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you come to Capel Llanilltern?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Capel Llanilltern. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Capel Llanilltern. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
