Wood floor repair in Dudley

Wood floor repair in Dudley, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We are frequently asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, across solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we are called out for in Dudley

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?
