Trusted wood floor repair in Kelstedge

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our prices page.

Our hiring checklist

Kelstedge: your questions answered

Do you cover Kelstedge?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kelstedge for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it messy?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Kelstedge

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What affects the price in Kelstedge

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
