Choosing a repair company

Wood floor repair in Hindley Green without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, across engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Hindley Green, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Hindley Green: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Hindley Green. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

Most customers in Hindley Green get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
