Wood floor repair near Dalton

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How we handle wood floor repair in Dalton

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and burns, across laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Dalton

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Dalton

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover Dalton?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Dalton and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace in Dalton?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
