How we handle wood floor repair in Northstead

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We’re often asked to fix dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Northstead

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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

Northstead: your questions answered

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you come to Northstead?

We do. We send a technician to Northstead for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
