How we handle wood floor repair in Old Cantley

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and burns, we can normally put it right, on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

FAQs for Old Cantley

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do you come to Old Cantley?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Old Cantley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

When can you do it?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Old Cantley use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One visit for most repairs

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we are called out for in Old Cantley

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
