About our wood floor repair in Meerhay

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. If you’re dealing with burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can normally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Landlord and trade work in Meerhay

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Meerhay questions

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Meerhay?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Meerhay, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
