Trusted wood floor repair in Mashbury

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Wood floor repair in Mashbury, done in place

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

10 questions to ask before you book

Mashbury: your questions answered

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Mashbury customers choose us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Mashbury, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 booking.
