Our hiring checklist

How we handle wood floor repair in Markham

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and people most often call us about dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Markham. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most customers in Markham get their price from photos. 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 Markham

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For anyone letting property in or around Markham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
