Repairing versus replacing in Longridge

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Longridge

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 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Longridge, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
