DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

About our wood floor repair in Hodthorpe

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our technicians work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are dents from dropped items and burns.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Hodthorpe and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Should you replace it?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Common questions in Hodthorpe

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
