Wood floor repair at your home in Hazeleigh

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and burns.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from Hazeleigh

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Hazeleigh?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Do you come to Hazeleigh?

We do. We send a technician to Hazeleigh for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, 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. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price
