Repairing versus replacing in Lower Chorley

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

About our wood floor repair in Lower Chorley

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most often call us about burns and gouges from moving appliances.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Lower Chorley and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

FAQs for Lower Chorley

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you cover Lower Chorley?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lower Chorley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do the materials smell?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
