Wood floor repair near Finningham

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Wood floor repair in Finningham, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are burns and dents from dropped items.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Finningham and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Finningham use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

  • Chipped board edges

  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

FAQs for Finningham

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Finningham included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
