Trusted wood floor repair in Islip

Wood floor repair in Islip without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most often call us about dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

  • Boards that have lifted or warped

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Islip

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Islip, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job.

Related advice

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
