Trusted wood floor repair in Erdington

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Erdington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area

Wood floor repair in Erdington, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, we can generally put it right.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Erdington. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
