Your questions about wood floor repair in Gedney

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Gedney

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

Landlord and trade work in Gedney

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

Most clients in Gedney get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
