Wood floor repair for Higher Shotton homes

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Wood floor repair in Higher Shotton without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and burns, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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.

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Higher Shotton

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

Landlord and trade work in Higher Shotton

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

All of Flintshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When to call us in Higher Shotton

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
