Trusted wood floor repair in Long Newton

Wood floor repair in Long Newton without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and burns.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Long Newton, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Landlords, agents and businesses in Long Newton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Long Newton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
