Wood floor repair in Elm

How we handle wood floor repair in Elm

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. If you’re dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace in Elm?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Questions from Elm

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you come to Elm?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Elm for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
