Wood floor repair near Fulwood

Wood floor repair in Fulwood, done in place

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. If you are dealing with chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlord and trade work in Fulwood

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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 pictures.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

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

Our hiring checklist

How we price wood floor repair

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole floor

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace in Fulwood?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
