Wood floor repair for Kildary homes

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Wood floor repair at your home in Kildary

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We are frequently asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, on laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Questions from Kildary

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kildary

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

When to call us in Kildary

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Look out for these signs:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IV18 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
