Wood floor repair in Chirton without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and burns, on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chirton

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chirton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Chirton. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

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

Signs you need wood floor repair in Chirton

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Common questions in Chirton

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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