Repair or replace in Highgate?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Highgate

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Highgate questions

Which areas do you work in?

All of Walsall, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Highgate. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
