Wood floor repair in Old Swan

Wood floor repair at your home in Old Swan

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. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood, and people most frequently call us about chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

  • Underfloor damage

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble 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 photos, as it can add time.

Old Swan: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Old Swan?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Old Swan. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I book?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. 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. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Old Swan

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances

Comparing quotes

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Old Swan

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything
