Questions from Kelmarsh

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Northamptonshire.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your NN6 postcode.

Wood floor repair in Kelmarsh, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, we can normally put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlord and trade work in Kelmarsh

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kelmarsh use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Kelmarsh, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  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. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Kelmarsh

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Kelmarsh

  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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