Wood floor repair for Marston St Lawrence homes

About our wood floor repair in Marston St Lawrence

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We’re frequently asked to fix dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

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

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

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

Can I fix it myself?

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 won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What we’re called out for in Marston St Lawrence

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area

Landlord and trade work in Marston St Lawrence

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, 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

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

Common questions in Marston St Lawrence

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Marston St Lawrence, and we will reply with a fixed price.
