How we handle wood floor repair in Cargate Common

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood, and people most often call us about dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

FAQs for Cargate Common

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How do I book?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you cover the whole of Norfolk?

All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Take a look at our pricing.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Cargate Common. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What we cannot put right

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

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with 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
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
