Wood floor repair at your home in North Earlham

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are 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.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Take a look at our pricing.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for North Earlham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

North Earlham questions

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in North Earlham

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Common problems we fix in North Earlham

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
