Wood floor repair in Methersgate

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we handle wood floor repair in Methersgate

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most frequently call us about burns and dents from dropped items.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

What affects the price in Methersgate

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Choosing a repair company

FAQs for Methersgate

Are there extra charges for Methersgate?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do the materials smell?

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

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

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.

If you manage property in Methersgate, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

What a repair cannot fix

We would 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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • 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 relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
