Advice

Wood floor repair at your home in Ilketshall St Lawrence

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you’re dealing with burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can usually put it right, on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Our hiring checklist

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ilketshall St Lawrence. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Ilketshall St Lawrence get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
