Wood floor repair in Mudeford

Wood floor repair in Mudeford, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Common questions in Mudeford

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Mudeford?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common problems we fix in Mudeford

  • Chipped board edges

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price covers travel
