Wood floor repair for Paddington Green homes

Wood floor repair in Paddington Green, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can help, on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  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

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you’re in Paddington Green and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we’re called out for in Paddington Green

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges

Comparing quotes

  • How to care for the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Questions from Paddington Green

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll 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 will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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