How we handle wood floor repair in Chilton Foliat

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.

Rural addresses like Chilton Foliat just need a little planning, and we’ll plan the visit around it.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need wood floor repair in Chilton Foliat

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

For older houses around Chilton Foliat, near landmarks such as Church of St Mary, original tiled floors and fireplaces are worth keeping, and chips and cracks can be repaired in place.

How to compare quotes

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on. Somewhere as small as Chilton Foliat, access is generally the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repairing versus replacing in Chilton Foliat

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. For a rural home like those around Chilton Foliat, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.

Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
