About our wood floor repair in Flaxby

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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 photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we are called out for in Flaxby

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Your questions about wood floor repair in Flaxby

How do I book?

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

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Are there extra charges for Flaxby?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is my repair covered?

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
