Wood floor repair in Pontesbury

What affects the price in Pontesbury

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you’re in Pontesbury and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page.

Pontesbury questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can landlords book you?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Do you come to Pontesbury?

We do. We send a technician to Pontesbury for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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