How we handle wood floor repair in Middle Herrington

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, in laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Middle Herrington questions

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you come to Middle Herrington?

We do. We send a technician to Middle Herrington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
