Wood floor repair near Linton-on-Ouse

Wood floor repair at your home in Linton-on-Ouse

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We regularly repair laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Linton-on-Ouse

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Landlord and trade work in Linton-on-Ouse

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Linton-on-Ouse use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in York and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
