Wood floor repair at your home in Drinkstone Green
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and burns.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.
