Need wood floor repair in Fancott?

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and burns, on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood.

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour-matched on site

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fancott

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fancott use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Fancott. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Fancott

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
