Trusted wood floor repair in Pencombe

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Wood floor repair in Pencombe without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and burns, we can generally put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood alike.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Pencombe

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One visit for most repairs

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Pencombe

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
