About our wood floor repair in Gilbertstone

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. Our repair technicians work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and chipped board edges.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Gilbertstone. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Gilbertstone. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gilbertstone

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Birmingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gilbertstone as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
