Wood floor repair in Lowther

How we handle wood floor repair in Lowther

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Lowther, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you’re in Lowther and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

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 will not last.

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Lowther

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
