Book wood floor repair in Mayfield

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Mayfield. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Wood floor repair at your home in Mayfield

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you are dealing with burns and chipped board edges, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

When to call us in Mayfield

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When we would advise against a repair

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

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Mayfield questions

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Mayfield.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Mayfield

Replacing a 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
