Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and burns, in solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Owlpen. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

If you are in Owlpen and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Owlpen

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When to call us in Owlpen

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Owlpen

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you work in Owlpen?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Owlpen from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
