Wood floor repair near Ossington

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Wood floor repair in Ossington without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and burns, we can usually put it right, on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common problems we fix in Ossington

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

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included

Questions from Ossington

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Repairing versus replacing in Ossington

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you’re in Ossington and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
