Wood floor repair near Pen-y-wern

Wood floor repair at your home in Pen-y-wern

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlord and trade work in Pen-y-wern

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Do you need wood floor repair in Pen-y-wern?

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Before booking anyone

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Pen-y-wern: your questions answered

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you cover the whole of Merthyr Tydfil?

We cover the entire UK, including Pen-y-wern and the rest of Merthyr Tydfil. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
