How we handle wood floor repair in Havercroft

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and people most frequently call us about gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Havercroft

  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Solid wood

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise 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

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Havercroft. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
