Wood floor repair in Garmston without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We regularly repair solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and scratches from furniture and pets.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Garmston as everywhere else we work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Garmston

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Garmston as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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 match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Common questions in Garmston

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Laminate flooring
  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
