Wood floor repair in Common End without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, across solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Common End

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Landlord and trade work in Common End

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Common End, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
