Wood floor repair at your home in Foxash Estate

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Landlord and trade work in Foxash Estate

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common questions in Foxash Estate

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

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.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Foxash Estate?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are
