  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Advice

How we handle wood floor repair in Milton

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Whether it’s chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can usually put it right, on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Milton customers choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

  • Everything repaired in place

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need wood floor repair in Milton?

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Milton

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

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • One picture of the whole floor
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we repair

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