How we handle wood floor repair in Colehill

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, we can help, on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Colehill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Colehill, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  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. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets 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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common questions in Colehill

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

The entire UK, including all of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Colehill.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
