Trusted wood floor repair in Coldeast

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

About our wood floor repair in Coldeast

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s burns and gouges from moving appliances, we can normally put it right.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Advice

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Coldeast. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You don’t need a survey visit. 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.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from Coldeast

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover Coldeast?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Coldeast. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Coldeast

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

For anyone letting property in or around Coldeast, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
