Wood floor repair in Llanrhidian Higher, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and burns, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Landlord and trade work in Llanrhidian Higher
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llanrhidian Higher as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos 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
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Llanrhidian Higher: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Do you work in Llanrhidian Higher?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Llanrhidian Higher. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What else we do in Llanrhidian Higher
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
