Wood floor repair in Overstone

About our wood floor repair in Overstone

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

Every job is backed for twelve months in Overstone and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we’re called out for in Overstone

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

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Overstone

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our full price list.

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

Questions from Overstone

Do you work in Overstone?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Overstone from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Overstone?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
