Wood floor repair in Holford

About our wood floor repair in Holford

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include burns and gouges from moving appliances, on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

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

Related advice

Holford: your questions answered

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Can landlords book you?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holford as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Holford

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

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Common problems we fix in Holford

  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Holford

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
