About our wood floor repair in Earl Shilton

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and burns.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Earl Shilton

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlord and trade work in Earl Shilton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

When to call us in Earl Shilton

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

What your quote should include

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Earl Shilton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area

  • No need to remove anything
