Our hiring checklist

Wood floor repair in Northfield without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in Northfield

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Northfield as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

When a repair is not the answer

  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Northfield. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Northfield. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
