Book wood floor repair in Cheylesmore

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Wood floor repair in Cheylesmore without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We’re often asked to fix dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, in laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cheylesmore. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Questions from Cheylesmore

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Coventry. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you work in Cheylesmore?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Cheylesmore for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
