- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Common questions in Hummerbeck
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How much does wood floor repair cost in Hummerbeck?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hummerbeck from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hummerbeck
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns

What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long it needs to cure
