How we handle wood floor repair in Ingleby

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We’re often asked to fix dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Ingleby. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.
