Wood floor repair for Church Whitfield homes

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How we handle wood floor repair in Church Whitfield

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, across solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Church Whitfield

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

FAQs for Church Whitfield

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
