Wood floor repair in Easington Lane

Wood floor repair in Easington Lane, done in place

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. We’re often asked to fix burns and gouges from moving appliances, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Sunderland. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Easington Lane questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Easington Lane and the rest of Sunderland. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

When to call us in Easington Lane

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

Clients generally contact us about:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

Repairing versus replacing in Easington Lane

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our prices page.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  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. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
