Our hiring checklist

Wood floor repair at your home in Ipplepen

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Our repair technicians work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and scratches from furniture and pets.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

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

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Questions from Ipplepen

Do you work in Ipplepen?

We do. Technicians travel to Ipplepen from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Repairing versus replacing in Ipplepen

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

  • Work done at your home or business

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Ipplepen and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
