How we handle wood floor repair in Cobham

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We’re often asked to fix burns and gouges from moving appliances, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Cobham questions

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Cobham included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What a repair cannot fix

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

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cobham. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour-matched on site

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
