Wood floor repair in Oswestry

How we handle wood floor repair in Oswestry

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Oswestry

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Oswestry questions

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Oswestry included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Will you leave a mess?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Shropshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
