Wood floor repair near Pitminster

Wood floor repair at your home in Pitminster

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Pitminster questions

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Pitminster and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Pitminster

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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
