Wood floor repair in Hillmoor, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets, we can generally put it right, on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
