About our wood floor repair in Meadowfield

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. If you’re dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, we can usually put it right.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Landlord and trade work in Meadowfield

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Meadowfield as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

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

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DH7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Signs you need wood floor repair in Meadowfield

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise 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.
