Book wood floor repair in Chipstead

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Wood floor repair at your home in Chipstead

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can give you a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

Do you need wood floor repair in Chipstead?

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
