Wood floor repair for Folke homes

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. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. 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.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour-matched on site

Wood floor repair in Folke, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, we can usually put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Folke

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Common questions in Folke

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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 affects the price in Folke

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DT9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
