Wood floor repair for Fforest homes

Wood floor repair at your home in Fforest

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s burns and dents from dropped items, we can usually put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

If you manage property in Fforest, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Your questions about wood floor repair in Fforest

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our prices page.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
