Wood floor repair in Charlestown, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Typical jobs include burns and scratches from furniture and pets, in engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Charlestown

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Charlestown

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Charlestown. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Common questions in Charlestown

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover Charlestown?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Charlestown and the rest of Fife. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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