Wood floor repair in Longhirst, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a 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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Longhirst

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Longhirst. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Longhirst

Do you cover the entire of Northumberland?

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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