Trusted wood floor repair in Ford

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Wood floor repair in Ford without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can help.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire. 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, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Common questions in Ford

Do I need to move furniture?

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, and it soon fades.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SN14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
