Wood floor repair near New Hunwick

New Hunwick: your questions answered

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DL15 postcode.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of County Durham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Wood floor repair in New Hunwick without replacing anything

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 scratches from furniture and pets and burns, we can help, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for New Hunwick. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for New Hunwick. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos 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. We start by cleaning the damage.
  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. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
