Trusted wood floor repair in Exmouth

Wood floor repair in Exmouth without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are often asked to fix burns and gouges from moving appliances, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. 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. 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.

Advice

FAQs for Exmouth

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Exmouth?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Are there extra charges for Exmouth?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Repairing versus replacing in Exmouth

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price 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 price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Exmouth. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
