Wood floor repair in Highnam

Wood floor repair in Highnam, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and burns, we can typically put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood alike.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

FAQs for Highnam

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do you work in Highnam?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Highnam and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Landlord and trade work in Highnam

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire floor

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Highnam, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What we are called out for in Highnam

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
