How we handle wood floor repair in Lightburn

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for burns and scratches from furniture and pets, across laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lightburn as everywhere else we work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Lightburn, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site

  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Lightburn

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
