How we handle wood floor repair in Gleadless Townend

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you are dealing with gouges from moving appliances and burns, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole floor

Most clients in Gleadless Townend get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
