About our wood floor repair in Hunwick

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are burns and dents from dropped items.

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

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hunwick

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Hunwick: your questions answered

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover Hunwick?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Hunwick from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hunwick. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Related advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Hunwick

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
