What affects the price in Launton

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Wood floor repair at your home in Launton

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 will not last.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Launton

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Landlords, agents and businesses in Launton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
