How we handle wood floor repair in Great Broughton

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and common reasons people contact us are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Great Broughton

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Do you cover Great Broughton?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Great Broughton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Great Broughton?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?

The whole UK, including all of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Broughton

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

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

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.
