Wood floor repair near Duddon

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the entire floor
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Duddon

What areas do you cover?

All of Cheshire West and Chester, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you come to Duddon?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Duddon and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Do you need wood floor repair in Duddon?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
