Need wood floor repair in Kilkenny?

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Wood floor repair in Kilkenny without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, in laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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.

What affects the price in Kilkenny

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most customers in Kilkenny get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace in Kilkenny?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why Kilkenny customers choose us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Read our pricing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What we are called out for in Kilkenny

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 you book.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kilkenny

For anyone letting property in or around Kilkenny, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
