Wood floor repair in Lowestoft

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we handle wood floor repair in Lowestoft

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s burns and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Common questions in Lowestoft

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover Lowestoft?

We do. We send a technician to Lowestoft for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

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

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lowestoft

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually 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. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lowestoft, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Lowestoft customers choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
