Trusted wood floor repair in Coryton

Landlords, agents and businesses in Coryton

If you manage property in Coryton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we handle wood floor repair in Coryton

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from furniture and pets and burns.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Coryton

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Any details about the material

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SS17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
