About our wood floor repair in Dunsford

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and burns, across solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Common problems we fix in Dunsford

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Questions from Dunsford

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.

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

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What affects the price in Dunsford

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything
