Wood floor repair in Corby

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Wood floor repair in Corby, done in place

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are often asked to fix dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, across solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Corby, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Corby

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Work done at your home or business

What we’re called out for in Corby

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges

What to look for in a quote

  • How to care for the finish
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Questions from Corby

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

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NN18 postcode.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is the work guaranteed?

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