Wood floor repair in Hillesden

Wood floor repair in Hillesden without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our technicians work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are burns and chipped board edges.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Hillesden

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
