Wood floor repair in Melling Mount, done in place

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.

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

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.

Common questions in Melling Mount

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your L31 postcode.

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.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Sefton, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Melling Mount. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Melling Mount, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlord and trade work in Melling Mount

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Melling Mount

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Melling Mount. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
