Trusted wood floor repair in Longley

How the visit works

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 normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Wood floor repair in Longley, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and burns, in engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

FAQs for Longley

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairing versus replacing in Longley

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Longley clients choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

  • Underfloor damage

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
