Wood floor repair at your home in Limerigg

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Limerigg

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What we’re called out for in Limerigg

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
