Wood floor repair for Little Thetford homes

About our wood floor repair in Little Thetford

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our technicians work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are burns and scratches from furniture and pets.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged 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. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Questions from Little Thetford

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire floor

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
