Wood floor repair in Hough-on-the-Hill

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Wood floor repair in Hough-on-the-Hill, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and burns, in engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book

FAQs for Hough-on-the-Hill

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Hough-on-the-Hill?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
