Wood floor repair in Chinese Quarter, done in place

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 is the case. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and burns, we can help, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Chinese Quarter and across Birmingham. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

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

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

What affects the price in Chinese Quarter

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
