Wood floor repair in Pelaw

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Pelaw. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

If you are in Pelaw and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Choosing a repair company

Pelaw: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Pelaw?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Newcastle upon Tyne. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our full price list.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Pelaw, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pelaw as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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, then guarantee it for a year.
