Landlords, agents and businesses in Crateford

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Wood floor repair in Crateford without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our technicians work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Crateford. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Crateford?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before you book

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price
