Wood floor repair near Nailstone

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Wood floor repair in Nailstone, done in place

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances.

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we are called out for in Nailstone

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Nailstone

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?

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

Do you cover Nailstone?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Nailstone for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Nailstone use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
