How we handle wood floor repair in Great Hallingbury

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs

What affects the price in Great Hallingbury

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
