About our wood floor repair in Little Bowden

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. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Bowden. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Bowden use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
