About our wood floor repair in Chapel-en-le-Frith

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and burns, in laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Repairing versus replacing in Chapel-en-le-Frith

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chapel-en-le-Frith as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
