Wood floor repair near Little Irchester

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

About our wood floor repair in Little Irchester

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you’re dealing with burns and chipped board edges, we can help, on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Irchester. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Little Irchester, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Little Irchester?

Little Irchester: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the whole of Northamptonshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Little Irchester included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Do you come to Little Irchester?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Little Irchester from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
