Wood floor repair in Peldon

Wood floor repair in Peldon without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and people most frequently call us about dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Peldon questions

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Peldon?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CO5 postcode.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Essex.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Peldon and the rest of Essex. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace in Peldon?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Peldon

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

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take 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. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
