Wood floor repair in Chester, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Whether it’s chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can generally put it right.

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

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Chester. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Chester questions

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Chester is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
