Need wood floor repair in Inbhir Aora?

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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 match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Wood floor repair at your home in Inbhir Aora

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We are often asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and burns, across solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most clients in Inbhir Aora get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inbhir Aora as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

FAQs for Inbhir Aora

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you need wood floor repair in Inbhir Aora?

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
