Wood floor repair in Isle of Dogs

How we price wood floor repair

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

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole floor

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job.

Wood floor repair in Isle of Dogs without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and burns.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Isle of Dogs questions

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Isle of Dogs is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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