How we handle wood floor repair in Hexton

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and burns, across laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hexton

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repair or replace in Hexton?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Work done at your home or business

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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.

Materials we work on in Hexton

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

When to call us in Hexton

  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns

What to look for in a quote

Choosing a repair company

FAQs for Hexton

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Hexton.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What affects the price in Hexton

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
