How we handle wood floor repair in Ixworth

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about burns and gouges from moving appliances.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Ixworth

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Landlord and trade work in Ixworth

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Ixworth, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

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

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

Materials we work on in Ixworth

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Ixworth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
