Wood floor repair in Great Gate

Your questions about wood floor repair in Great Gate

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Wood floor repair in Great Gate without replacing anything

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. Typical jobs include burns and dents from dropped items, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Great Gate. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically 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.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around Great Gate, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
