Need wood floor repair in Fishponds?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we handle wood floor repair in Fishponds

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it

Questions from Fishponds

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Are there extra charges for Fishponds?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Will you leave a mess?

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

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, 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.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours.

  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 recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
