About our wood floor repair in Oare

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most often call us about gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlord and trade work in Oare

If you manage property in Oare, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in West Berkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What affects the price in Oare

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
