Wood floor repair in Chelmorton

About our wood floor repair in Chelmorton

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our repair technicians work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Chelmorton questions

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  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

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
