Wood floor repair in Holme without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our technicians work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlord and trade work in Holme

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Questions from Holme

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
