How we handle wood floor repair in Eighton Banks

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Typical jobs include chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Repair or replace: which is better?

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Eighton Banks. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Eighton Banks

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you cover the entire of Gateshead?

All of Gateshead, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
