Wood floor repair in Lydiard Millicent without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and people most frequently call us about scratches from furniture and pets and burns.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Our hiring checklist

Lydiard Millicent questions

How much does wood floor repair cost in Lydiard Millicent?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Lydiard Millicent. Prices don’t change with location.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you work in Lydiard Millicent?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Lydiard Millicent from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Repair or replace in Lydiard Millicent?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Lydiard Millicent clients choose us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Lydiard Millicent, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price
