About our wood floor repair in Monkswood

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. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Monkswood as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Monkswood

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Common problems we fix in Monkswood

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
