Wood floor repair in Handsworth Wood

Common questions in Handsworth Wood

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Handsworth Wood. Prices don’t change with location.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How we handle wood floor repair in Handsworth Wood

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, across engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Birmingham. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Handsworth Wood

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Repair or replace in Handsworth Wood?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
