Wood floor repair in Orford without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, across laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around Orford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Orford

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

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

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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