Wood floor repair for New Hinksey homes

What affects the price in New Hinksey

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Wood floor repair in New Hinksey, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most often call us about burns and chipped board edges.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Landlord and trade work in New Hinksey

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repair or replace in New Hinksey?

Replacing a 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. 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.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our prices page.

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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