Wood floor repair in Fearn without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 frequently lifts.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fearn. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Fearn clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Fearn

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
