Hook-a-Gate questions

Wood floor repair in Hook-a-Gate without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Repairing versus replacing in Hook-a-Gate

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Everything repaired in place

Take a look at our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Hook-a-Gate, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

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

Common problems we fix in Hook-a-Gate

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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.
