Wood floor repair at your home in Colwinston

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We’re frequently asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, across engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Vale of Glamorgan. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Landlords, agents and businesses in Colwinston

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Colwinston as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about wood floor repair in Colwinston

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Colwinston?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CF71 postcode.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Are there extra charges for Colwinston?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Colwinston. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What we can’t put right

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

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Colwinston

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
