How we handle wood floor repair in Cockden

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and burns.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Questions from Cockden

Do you cover the entire of Lancashire?

We cover the whole UK, including Cockden and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do you come to Cockden?

We do. We send a technician to Cockden for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Cockden

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Cockden, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There is 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we’re called out for in Cockden

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected
