We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to 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

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

What affects the price in Lower Ansty

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Lower Ansty. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common questions in Lower Ansty

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT2 postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you come to Lower Ansty?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Lower Ansty from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
