Wood floor repair for Fleet Hargate homes

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

About our wood floor repair in Fleet Hargate

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can normally put it right, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

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

FAQs for Fleet Hargate

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price
