About our wood floor repair in Pontypool

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, in engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Your questions about wood floor repair in Pontypool

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What information do you need?

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.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you work in Pontypool?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Pontypool for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Signs you need wood floor repair in Pontypool

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

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges

  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

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

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pontypool. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
