Wood floor repair near Doddinghurst Common

What a repair cannot fix

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water

  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

About our wood floor repair in Doddinghurst Common

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We regularly repair engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and people most frequently call us about scratches from furniture and pets and burns.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Doddinghurst Common. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CM15 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
