How we handle wood floor repair in Heston

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and burns, across engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Repairing versus replacing in Heston

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Heston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Heston, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
