Trusted wood floor repair in Liff

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Wood floor repair at your home in Liff

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood, and people most often call us about gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

How we price wood floor repair

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

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Repairing versus replacing in Liff

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why Liff clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.
