Wood floor repair in Easington

About our wood floor repair in Easington

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

How the visit 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 work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Common questions in Easington

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Do I need to be at home?

Repairing versus replacing in Easington

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
