How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Wood floor repair at your home in Marsden

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most frequently call us about gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Repairing versus replacing in Marsden

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Marsden. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Landlord and trade work in Marsden

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Marsden

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you come to Marsden?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Marsden from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we’re called out for in Marsden

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
