Wood floor repair for Knockin homes

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Knockin as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

About our wood floor repair in Knockin

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can typically put it right, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Knockin questions

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Are you accredited?

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?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do you come to Knockin?

We do. We send a technician to Knockin for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Knockin. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
